X-Lite is a softphone client, created by counterpath, which can be used to make and receive calls over the internet through a next generation carrier like Telnyx! X-Lite can be used on Windows or Mac OS platforms only.
First, you'll need to have setup a credentials based connection in the Telnyx Mission Control Portal. Once you've done this you should assign this connection to a DID and outbound profile in order to make and receive outbound calls. This is the username and password you will use to register X-Lite with Telnyx.
